A "My Favorite Things" quilt for my nephew...

The last time we were visiting with Tony's sister Anitra and her son she was telling me some of Avery's favorite things.  I made a mental note and then had this smashing idea:  I would make him a fun quilt using fabrics of his "favorite things"!

Most of the fabrics are self-explanatory except maybe the gold and black border.  You see, Avery is a Vandy fan!  LOL


...and the back:

I can't wait to see his face -- I hope he loves it!!

This was all machine pieced and quilted.  I used two layers of Killington flannel instead of traditional batting.
